Unproyoked Murder.

Mr.. Joseph c. Kennedy, one of the oldest
and most highly respected citizens of Wash
ington was murdered yesterday afternoon
about O'Clock, at the corner Of Fifteenth
street and New York avenue, by John
DAILY, notorious character, who was re-
leased from the workhouse only that morn
ing. Mr.. Kennedy had just locked his
Office door, which adjoins the Riggs Bank,
and was about to take street Car for his
home on n street when he was confronted
by DAILY, who suddenly whipped out a
caseknife, the edge of which was sharpened
to the keenness Of q razor, and plunged it
| into the right side of the abdomen, and
then, by sudden jerk of his hand, forced
the knife upward, making terrible wound.
MIR. Kennedy fell, with his assailant on top
of him. Daily made no attempt to escape,
and was at once arrested, while looking on,
apparently the most unconcerned and self
possessed man in the crowd, which had
until now held aloof as if afraid 10 approach
the murderer Mr.. Kennedy expired in
about five minutes.
The excitement rose rapidly and the
crowd grew boisterous, threatening 10 hang
the murderer, but DAILY paid but little atten-
| ton to them and refused to say why he
committed the crime, but once, when pro-
voked by the crowd, he turned fercely
around and said "Yes, killed him, damn
him." The indignation of the people be-
came so grtaj that the policeman, who had
him in charge, removed him to the drug
store on the corner, where he was
kept until the patrol wagon came up and
carried him to the station house. He is
man about so years of age. AT the station
house he told a rambling and incoherent
story about the affair, of which the general
purport was that Kennedy had wronged
his father years ago and had secured prop.
erty worth 81 900 for $780, and that he re.
fused to make restitution.
DAILY was arrested about year ago for as
saultng man on Pennsylvania avenue,
whom he claimed was Catholic priest who
had prosecuted MIN years ago. He was
sent to the workhouse, but refused to work.
1t was thought that he was insane, but the
physicians pronounced him Of sound mind,
and yesterday morning his time of confne-
ment expired and he was set at liberty.
The impression is that DAILY is a crank of
the Guiteau stripe.
In 1S49 Mr.. Kennedy was invited TO 90
to Washington to accept the secretaryship
OF the census board, and he drafted the bill
which provided for the establishment Of the
census bureau, to the head of which he was
soon appointed. In 1851 he visited Europe
on special business for the government in
connection with cheap postage and other
postal matters. In 1862 be was appointed a
commissioner to the London International
Exhibition. He has been prominent fig
ure in Washington society for nearly forty
years. He leaves wife and three children.

order said that he had no application to
put in for delay, but would move for a
new trial and wished the stenographer to
make q note of the fact. Judge Barrett
said that if the document contained nothing
new he would deny the application for a
new trial. Mr.. Mitchell then read the
paper stating that the trial was an unfair
one in several ways; the jury was preju-
diced against the client and gave an unfair
verdict. Moreover the Judges charge was
an unjust one. Several other points were
raised but of the sterotyped variety. Judge
Barrett stated that the motion would prop.
erly be denied. Mr.. Mitchell then stood up
to make last appeal for the defense. He
said he did not wish TO delay the court, but
would ask the judge to temper justice with
mercy. At LOG Judge Barrett sentenced
Sharp to four years Imprisonment and to
pay a fine OF s. 900.

Jacob Sharp Sentenced.

NEW YORK, July l4-Jacob Sharp slept
better last night than for some nights pre-
vious but it seemed to be the sleep OF utter
exhaustion and ne appeared to be but little
refreshed by it when he arose this morning
at nine o'clock. His wife sat by his bedside
through the night tanning him while he was
asleep and giving him cooling drinks when
he woke ut intervals After he rose from
bed she assisted him to dress for his second
trip to the court Of Oyer and Terminer to
receive sentence. He bore the same listless
Indifferent, almost dazed manner noticeable
in him since his conviction. He appeared
almost unconscious of the attention his wife
lavished on him and scarcely exchanged
word with her. Sharp and Judge Barrett
arrived at the court house at 1l:50 a. IN.
Judge Barrett whose illness yesterday com.
PEELED a postponement ofthe sentenceof the
convicted man, had recovered sufficiently to-
day to be present in court. He arrived at

VISIONS on TIE GLAss-Excitementi is at fever
heat in the Milford neighborhood near Augusta
KY over the mysterious appearance of the most
wonderful faces and figures upon the window
glass of tho houses in that section. The first ap
pearance of these singular and most extraordina'
ry pictures on the glass was at the residence OF
William Showater. where the window panes all
at once showed the colors of the rainbow, on
which two days later the heads of people and ami
mails clearly visible. On the glass at another
house head snd face resembling President Lin.
coins were 10 be seen. On another the form of a
young girl bending over an infant, the body of a
lion, the figures % and landscape, were all wish
ble as distinctly outlined as any artist could have
drawn them. Some persons attribute these
strange appearances to the reflection of the sun in
the water, others to the action of the moon; but
neither theory seems plausible since some OF the
most striking pictures are on the windows of the
Milford Baptist Church. which are protected with
shutters that are kept tightly closed. The people
of Bracken county have not in years been more
worked up over anything than they now over
these pictures.

Creek Indian Murlerers.

FORT SMITH, Ark, Jaly 14--In the trial
Of Seaborn Green. DR.. Walker aud Josh
Shoots, three Creek Indians charged with a
horrible triple murder, verdict Of guilty as
to Seaborn Green and not guilty as to
the other two was rendered. The proof
shows that on the 17th ofJauuary deputy
U. S, marshal Phillips struck camp fifteen
miles from Eufaula, Creek Nation, having
Seaborn Green in custody on light charge.
He had business at Eufaula, and leaving his
camp in charge of Henry Smith, Mark Kuy
kendall and VIM. Kelley, proceeded to that
place alone. On his return next morning a
terrible sight met his gaze On pallet near
the camp fire lay the remains of Smith and
Kuykendall with their heads severed from
their bodies with an axe, their lower ex-
tremities burned to crisp from their waists
down, their murderers having piled burning
fagots from the camp fire on them. About
II feet distant from them lay the body
OF Kelly in pool Of blood He had been
shot and also mutilated with the bloody axe.
Seaborn Green had gone, as was also some
of the property belonging to the officer.
Walker and Shoola were brought in as &C
cessories to the murders, some of the pro.
perty belonging TO the officers being found
under Walkers house. When Seaborn
Green was put on the witness stand he adj
united that he had killed the three men I'M
aided, thus relieving his companions

of the Pacific Railroad, and is looking well.
He says that while talking in the hotel lob

Senator Morgan's son has recently been
appointed 10 q lucrative federal office. The
injurious spirit of nepotism seems to be as
prevalent in the democratic as it was in the
republican party when the latter was IN
power, and, as mentioned in this correspond.
ence Yesterday, has recently showed itself
conspicuously in the labor party.
1t is said to-day that the President has
reconsidered his determination not TO visit
St. Louis next fall, and that after the q. a
r. has had their meeting in that city, and are
we'll out OF it, he will accept the now invl'
tation to visit ;here, to be rendered him
and that the reception that will be given
him then will be ten times as enthusiastic
and demonstrative as that he would have
received had it not been for the treatment
that has been accorded him by the &. A. Il
Mr.. George French, republican clerk II
the Treasury Department for twenty years
and well known to be an offensive partisan
has lust been promoted by Mr.. Butler, o.
Boston, the new Second Comptroller, to the
position of Chief of Division, in the Second
Comptroller's Office.
The murder in this city yesterday has
made the people here more obserVant Of
those they meet on the streets, or in whose
immediate presence they are, and the nu
merous cranks seen here walking about
talking to themselves, are now given wide
berths, lest the prevailing hot weather may
induce another one of them TO plung III;
knife also into the unsuspecting bowels o.
some man he had never seen before.
The fact that the man who was removed

for Harvey, the republican forger, WAS MIR
| $. w. Shade, true blue, honest democrat
and for some years secretary Of the execu
tive committee of the democratic party o
Pennsylvania, has not, it seems, made mug
wumpery any more popular among the
democrats who are seen there than it ha;
been.
Senator Riddleberger was expected here
to morrow, but a dispatch received from
him to-day says it will be impossible fol
him 10 leave home before next week.
The report that Secretary Whitney recently
said to friend that the great mistake he had
made in the administration OF the Navy Depart
ment was his failure TO remove every republican
in that department soon after assuming charge
thereof, is credited here by those who know him
best. They also say that Mr.. Whitney would moi
have committed the mistake referred to if he had
been fancy free, and had not been subject to
ranking power.

Charged will, Embezzlement.

NcRRIsTowN, July 14.-W. C. Sanders
was arrested in Philadelphia yesterday and
brought 10 Norristown, charged by Jacob
G. Lands with embezzlement. At the hear.
ing it was testified that in 1881 Sanders went
10 Mr.. Lands and, representing himself as
the agent of company for the collection of
lapsed insurance policies, obtained such q
policy from him. lands has heard moth
ing from Sanders, although he discovered
that the policy, which was for 500, has been
paid. Search WAS made for Sanders, but bis
whereabouts was not known until within
II few days, when he turned up in Philadel-
phia. Il is alleged that Sanders secured
other policies in Norrisown and has never
rendered satisfaction to the original holders.
He secured from Frederick Gillinger a
policy for $4,000 and although six years
have elapsed, he has never made return
OF policy or money. Sanders was
held in $1,000 for further hearing on Sat.
urday, by which time, it is expected there
were will be additional evidence against
hiin.
